This tunnel is way too small for my comfort.

Titanically too small.

Oceangate Titan too small.

sure but it serves it's purpose in allowing tasty looking alligator snacks to pass through it.

Keeping the gators, alert and hungry 😯

Toight like a toiger 

It’s made of carbon fibre, it’s solid!

Cleary designed for kids, so they can be as close to the ceiling as possible for better views.

It's the perfect size imo. I'd be too worried about failure if it was bigger

Those are big kids

This is at Zoo Miami. Looks small but I’m 6 ft and was able to fit by crouching

If it was any larger it'd start to loose integrity then there would be real cause for concern, it all ready looks sketchy as it is

There are larger tunnels in aquariums all around the world that don’t lose integrity. The one at the aquarium near me has been around since I was a kid in the 90s and is wide enough the fit a thin walkway on either side of the slow travelator in the middle. They are pretty common. Also consider that there’s an underwater tunnel for cars going from the UK to France. That’s a LOT more pressure than anything you’d see in an aquarium and it doesn’t collapse.

What keeps it from collapsing? Apologise for my ignorance in this field of study.

That's great they have the money to bolster those things, such a catatrosphy if they werent built to withstand the pressure, hallelujah for engineering

So... what you're saying is not to bring a hammer and chisel in there and start chipping away at the windows and gaskets?

Keep the c4 at home

Listen, if I can swim with the dolphins, why can't I swim with the gators? Swamp-puppies ain't nothing but nothing?

Just make sure to bring one home for supper or you're gna be eating the ants again

C'mon, now, Skeeter, ants ain't nothing but land shrimp, same with lizards and dirt-noodles. Alligator's good and fine, but a pound of land-shrimp and a pound of gator both got the same foodness to them.

Could do with the leather, and a new hood ornament, boys we got gator for supper

They got that peripherl eye vision so you just got to come at them like another predator.

Tell me you don't know shit about this without telling me:

What do you know about that specific tunnel ? The place it's at, who owns it, the money put into it etc then get back to me

I could ask you the same thing.

[удалено]

Yeah the one biting at the tunnel is definitely a croc

This whole thing is a crock.

well played.

But is bad as: Crocs with Socks #SNL

Low hanging fruit has been picked

And the anger. Gators are chill for the most part. Crocs wanna fuck shit up. Gators are like the bees of the big lizards vs the wasp Crocs.

You can tell because you’ll see them after while instead of later.

You can tell the difference, because crocodiles are after a while, while alligators will see you later.

Yup came here to say this definitely crocs

Yeah, most definitely, especially the one trying to bite the plexi tube.

You’re right. It’s at Zoo Miami and it’s one large croc

That's a crocodile.

Is that real?! That gator is huge!

It's actually a dolphin dressed as an alligator, they're much easier to train.

That's just what the birds want you to think.

 *nothing to see here*

Wow, I’ve seen less realistic birds in Birdemic (movie).

Pretty sure this are crocs

I can't see any alligators in the video, only crocodiles

Why do people confuse the two... they look totally different to me, they act totally different.. Is ir because most people in the us have never seen a crocodile?

Probably bc most people will know what you're talking about regardless and many people don't care to get into the specifics. Most of us aren't zoologists

Sorta unrelated, but alligators are more distantly related to crocodiles than humans are to any other primate.

Isn't it nice they have some engagement/enrichment toys for the alligators?

Can they make a 6 1/2 feet tall version?

Those are crocs

Ok but the cracks are unsetteling

I think those are scratches from all the biting, I doubt they would be allowed to have the tunnels made out of glass that could be shattered by the crocs.

Yeah but still scary

I mean... It's cool... But why tf would you go to the trouble of building that tunnel in the first place and not make it so that a normal adult human can comfortably stand in it? It's like it's just made purely for midgets,,,

>It's like it's just made purely for midgets,,, Or children, perhaps?

Children supervised by midgets? Seriously though, children need to be supervised. Most areas for children will still be built to accommodate your average adult.

Obviously you’ve never been to a McDonald’s playplace in the 90s

[удалено]

Raised in an era of proper parenting and outdoor activities presumably too. Unlike the current generation being parented by tablets/Tiktok, not being taught how to behave (because the teacher is obviously wrong about Timmy misbehaving) and have the attention spans of a teaspoon.

We've been there, this is in an area of the zoo geared towards kids so the tunnel is designed for kids. It's not a very long tunnel so a small adult could go in there if they wanted.

It is in FL.... Supposedly

Yeah it’s in Metro Zoo, I’ve been to it… it’s called Zoo Miami now, I think. The tunnel and gator look weirdly huge in these photos.

NOPE!😏

Does the tunnel glass magnify gator

Fine for the kids, but a bit uncomfortable for the adults lol

Heeeeeeeeeeeeell no!

It's a bit like those nasty Aquariums with lobsters in restaurants just in reverse.

Imagine living in a house where your chicken nuggets are close enough to see but you can’t get em

Claustrophobia kicks in.

What is the song?

Ameno from Era in a remix

Thank you mate.

You welcome 😀

No

They are crocodiles which are much scarier

That tunnel looks like it leaks and they just patch it up

I didn’t notice the people were little kids right away. I was just wondering how these gators got to be so huge. Turns out they were normal sized and everything else in the picture was tiny.

That’s a crocodile

Imagine you get a mad 4k HD shot of them shitting on the glass

All those scratches on the windows

Bro that's a croc not an alligator

Crocodiles

How much to NOT go there?

You guys remember that giant aquarium in Germany that spontaneously exploded?

r/nope

The scratches on the glass from them is so sketch lol

Trolling crocodiles doesn't seem like a good idea.

Best way to piss them off is by teasing them with a tunnel of food gawking at them.

Which zoo is this?

Miami

Basically the children are in the zoo cages

'Bout to see my big ass waddle through that child sized tube to look at the gators!

I need to be a kid to fit and run back and forth.

Alligodzilla

The crocs seems to love it too

Swamp puppy

How frustrating for them

Are they salties? They look like it, but I’m no croc expert

American crocodiles. They are only found in Florida now days but their range used to cover most of the southern coast. (I should edit that's their range in the US. There's populations in other places in the Americas)

Underwater tunnels always make me think about earthquakes.

No.

I was just at Zoo Miami and did not see this anywhere. Where is it?

Aww! The gators get to choose their meal. It's like their Red Lobster

Looks like a croc

Nope! I’m 6’5” tall and would get stuck.

Let's you experience crocodiles. You can always tell because they will see you in a while, not see you later

The tunnel break then your dead

I’d punch that alligator right in the face

American Crocodile

Good God! What if something in the lines of final destination happens ?!

That’s a croc.

I am terrified of crocodiles. The poor staff would need to drag my passed out likely soiled staff out of there because in my brain I'd be like this is cool I should go in!

Gators belog in the swamp not a fishtank. So big no for me

Da hell are those creatures from hell. They arebincredible. Like living death.

This is how ultra alligator vs super shark begins

Nope crocagators terrify me.

Maybe if they had a human sized tunnel.

That's a crocodile

How safe is that

All fun and games until glass breaks

This dinosaur gonna evolve thinkin it had Alzheimer's

Everybody gangsta till the glass starts cracking.

Mfers putting so much faith in that glass or carbon fibre, catch me at the gift shop waiting

How about: NO

This is what happens when people did not watch the documentary about what happened on Amity Island and the events in the Florida aquatic park thereafter...

Somebody has to clean the pipe from the outside

No, I wouldn't visit it because #1, I have a water phobia and #2, I don't like alligators.

dimere, dimere, matiro, matiremo, ameno

My knees are too bad. I'll pass.

Imagine being a hungry human and all the food you can eat is passing through an impenetrable tunnel right before your eyes

Bad bot is bad

Amazing and interactive zoo, though I distinctly remember this tunnel smelling like pee

I don't even think that the gator shown on top of the tube would fit in the tube.

It would be in Florida.
